Looking forward, hopefully, to a nice day before Wednesday’s almost certain rainy day.

Planning to get to the Elections Office to cast our Early Vote. Some 793 voters showed up yesterday to vote early, pressing the local Elections Office to handle the crowd. In addition to the in-person voters, there were 367 ballots received by mail. In the last election here, a Primary Runoff, there were about 1500 total Early Votes cast in the entire election.

If this is a measure of the vote for this mid-term election, it is going to be big. If it is only a sign of a very interested portion of the electorate that is fired-up, the daily Early Vote numbers could begin to decrease after a few days.
